The Deadwood papers bring the news
of the marriage of the son Of judy g u.
Mclaughlin, SO well known in this ctty
where he formerly resided. Willie Nc
Laughlin is the bridegroom; he was born

Is, 1887, at the rooms of Mr.. aud Mrs.
D. Mclaughlin, parents of the groom, by
Rev. Father Walsh, pastor OF st. Ambrose's
church, William Law Mclaughlin to Miss
Sara Patterson Clary.
1t has never been our pleasure to chron-
icle a wedding in which the parties to the
| event have been more highly esteemed,
or more properly SO. than are the lady
and gentleman whose nuptials were cele-
brated yesterday evening. Both have
resided here for a number of years, and
both are universally loved and admired
for their many rare qualities of heart and
| mind.
Tho groom is the present district attor-
ney for this county, to which Office he was
elected last fall by a majority so handsome
as to be a compliment of the highest
nature, especially when coupled with the
fact that he was the only successful candi-
date on the entire ticket on which he ran.
He is a young gentleman Of the highest
ability aud probity, and of a sterling
worth of character which has won for him
the respect and admiration Of all. OF a
naturally brilliant mind, he has had the
advantages of thorough education in one
of the most famous seats of learning In
the country, namely, the Georgetown
university. Washington, D. c., from
which he graduated with the high
est honors after a course of
studies extending over eight years.
He successfully took the degrees of
bachelor of arts. master of arts and bach
elor of law. The esteem and favor in
which he is held by the faculty is plainly
shown by the following congratulatory tel
egram which he received yesterday even
ing from Rev. James A. Doonan, presi-
dent, Rev. William Cowardin. vice presi-
dent and Rev. James B Mullaly, treas
urer, of the school: Congratulations
from your alma mater on this happy
day." The bride is the sister of F. NJ.
Clary, cashier of the Central City bank,
and was until recently one of the most
popular teachers in the Deadwood public
school. Handsome, cultured and refined;
Of amiable disposition and loveable man
ners she is a lady to be admired. respected
and esteemed, aud fortunate indeed is the
happy groom who succeeded in gaining
her heart and hand as a companion on

have reached the superlative degree of crank
ness to wish her voice silenced.
Though Adelina Maria Clorinda Patti wal
born i'll Madrid, in 1913, her family moved tc
New York the following year. 1t was there
that her early musical training was received
so she may be claimed an an American. lei
brother-in-law was Maurice Strakosch, and II
was he who first brought hor before the pub
lie in New York, in 1859. She had sung in
concerts from the ago of s. In 1861 she sang
in ltaHan opera in London, and Immediately
won a success which has made her a PRIME
favorite with the English public since. In
1869 She captured the Partisan hearts, and In
1870 she visited Russia, and her voice so cnp
tivsted the emperor that he decorated her with
attic, and appointed her first singer at the i'm.
perial court. In 1868 Nine. Patti was married
to the Marquis de Caux, but the noble WINS un-
worthy of her, and they were legally sep
nrated.
Mime. PATHS sister, Carlotta, is also gifted
with n beautiful voice. 1t IL described as tn,
highest soprano ever known, reaching to G
sharp in alt. Her powers of execution nr
also extraordinary, but owing to a slight
lanieness she has refrained from exhibiting
her talents on the stage and has confined then
to concerts.

guests whose brilliant costumes amid the
bright lights lent color to the festive car.

early morning. The guests began to ar
rive in carriages as early as 8 o'clock, and
when with a grand flourish of trumpets
the band played the grand march many
masked figures had assembled and the

ni6cent. The ball was in every respect a
grand success, rejecting great credit on

him a mechanism more scientific than tho
human throat II it should be discovered
that he has he will draw like a knockdoyn
between editors.
Coquelin, as he is written about, is all art
ist. If he is known to any one in the mora
natural character of man and citizen. nobody
has said anything about it yet. In the begin.
ming OF his life he was Benoit Constant Co
quelin; but he has dropped the first name
and is simply Constant Coquelin now. He
was born on the sd of January, 1871, at Bou.
lognesur-mer, and his father was n respect
able baker. He is, then, 40 years old. Not
young as the world rates age, and not old as
tue stage rates it. The land of the footlights
knows no old age for its great people.
Genius can throttle Time, the enemy. and i've
to the last in an atmosphere Of deathless
youth.
He laments that the beautiful art Of the
actor is perishable-even more SO than the
painters. This he calls the misfortune Of his
craft. as it is cheated thereby Of the supreme
consolation of unappreciated genius, the ap-
peal to posterity. He says: aHowever, mis-.
fortune though it be, it is no degradation.
We are to be pitied for it, that Is all. Love
III the more for it, dear, charitable public,
since you are at once our present and our
future, and our immortality dies with the
echo of your applause
NJ Coquelln has the sensible idea Of genius,
too. He believes it is closely related to per-
sistence and hard work, and that inspiration
Is wrought out and not waited for. He says:
Nothing is more likely to produce inspira-
ton than good, hard, preparatory work. He
has carried out his theory; he has worked in.
cessantly. He was admitted to the Coincide
Franchise when but 81 years of age, and be-
came a societaire at "a, all Of which meant
that he had paid for these privileges in the
coin of eternal vigilance.
His claims to public homage, do not, it Is
said, lie in the usual stock of famous actors.
He isn't young, beautiful, or insinuating. 1t
is all a question Of talent, Of execution. He
doesn't depend upon good looks, picturesque.
ness of appearance, or splendid stage clothes.
He isn't even romantic looking in any par
ticular. AT first sight he seems formed only
for the broadest comedy.
Mr.. James says he Is an image of success as
well as of resolution. 1t came to him the first
time he trod the stage. he has yet to NEE,
defeat. He has an immense repertory, as
well as a telling voice. and in tho United
States he will be likely to find plenty Of elbow
room for both.

That a coutaminating and foreign element

the cause Of rheumatism. This settles
upon the sensitive sub cutaneous covering
of the muscles and ligaments OF hejoints,
causing constant and shifting pain, and
a%ggregating as a calcareous, chalky de-
post which produces stiffness and distor-

tiers has stronger evidence to sup
port than this, namely, that this
medicine of comprehensive uses checks
the formidable and atrocious disease, nor
is it less positively established that it is
preferable to the poisons often used to ar
rest it, since the medicine contains only

There are 200, 900 commercial travellers
or statesmen on the road" in this coun-
try Each one of these is selected from
an army of clerks by his employers and
given his position on account of his capa-
bilities and special qualifications for sell
ing goods. He must be posted daily as
to prices discounts, freight rates. the
cost of delivering goods at his Customers
doors, and must have thorough ac-
quaintance with all the goods IN his line
and the prices against which he COM
petes.
The drummer is TO be met everywhere
in the business world; he pierces every
village and hamlet of the civilized globe;
hotsa-keepers welcome him, because he
helps to make business, and merchants
greet him whether or not they want to
buy. He spends money, but it is a popu-
lar fallaoy that he spends his mGney
freely He must keep down his ex-
penses that his profits may be as large
as possible, as these regulate mis- saisfy.
DrummeTs carry from point 70 point
their customs and ideas, as bees carry
pollen, and in this way they help to in
struct as well as to minister to the physs-
cal wants of people, and being entirely
accommodating in their politics and
geographical preferences, they may be
regarded as the great missionaries of

A Couple Of rime-Honorsd puns.

One of the society papers recently
exposed a fiction which had become
widespread. When Sir Charles Napier
took Sind, it was stated that he sent
home to the government the punning
message, "Peccavi," to inform them that
Il have Sind" This is not a bad pun,
but the credit of it is due, not to Sir
Charles Napier, but to Punch, IN the
pages of which periodical it appeared
soon after the announcement of the tax
ing of Sind. The pun is of the same
order as Lambs *Docet" Latin for Thou
teachest, and intended to designate a
chest of tea.-Bostcn Herald.
